I know this might not be a huge problem but it is bothering me. While racking my beer to secondary I walked away for a couple minutes and the hose had slipped above water. I imagine about 2 or so gallons, maybe less splashed around while I was away. Is this going to damage my beer in some way, or is there something I should do?

I always manage to get something wrong in this beer brewing stuff, but I am getting better.

You'll be fine. It takes more splashing than that to oxidize a batch.

Only time will tell. Treat it like its fine for now. Even if it got oxidized, that just reduces the amount of time you can store it before it starts going 'stale'.

Don't worry. You'll make bigger mistakes than this(like I did http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/kegging-mistake-i-wont-make-again-cheer-me-up-75328/) and your beer is still good. Read and learn and try to avoid the mistakes, but remember most mistakes are forgiving and you will still end up with beer

I used to worry about oxidation and HSA. Then I saw some videos of a commercial brewery in action.

I don't worry anymore, I'm just cautious. I'd have to go out of my way to get close to them in HSA and oxidation. (Think splashing the beer from the second story of a house into the secondary)
